Dominica celebrated World Tourism Day on 27th September under the theme “Tourism and Peace.” The entire Caribbean celebrated the day, as tourism is the driving force behind the country’s economy. Tourism Organization of the Caribbean hosted a virtual forum for World Tourism Day 2024, focusing on the significance of tourism in promoting peace and sustainability.

The Dominica Ministry of Tourism addressed the world through social media posts on the occasion of World Tourism Day: “Today, we celebrate World Tourism Day under the theme: Tourism and Peace! Tourism is a driving force for economic growth in Dominica, and many of us depend on its vibrancy—from our cruise vendors, tour guides, taxi operators, and hotels to everyone who works tirelessly to create remarkable experiences for our visitors.”

The Government of Dominica encouraged everyone to join their hands in improving Dominica into a sustainable global tourism destination where visitors experience cultural exchange, local cuisine, nature, and adventure.

The Caribbean economy revolves around tourism. The vibrant islands attract thousands of visitors annually. The virtual forum hosted by the Caribbean Tourist Organization on 27th September addressed the role of tourism in building a bright future for the nation. Tourism brings global opportunities to the country, which can create hundreds of jobs in the industrial, tourism, and agricultural sectors. Global and regional investors can collaborate to create projects that can improve infrastructure in islands. Emphasizing on tourism can bring global leaders together while focusing on international relationships.

As Caribbean islands are the major tourist spots, it also points towards public health and safety. The Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) and its Regional Tourism and Health Programme (THP) advised the nationals to be mindful of the infectious diseases and other risks.

Ad Interim Executive Director, CARPHA and Head of the THP, Lisa Inder, stated, “With the Caribbean’s heavy reliance on the travel and tourism industry, we must be mindful of the region’s exposure and vulnerability to infectious disease and pandemic risks and the necessity for health to be intertwined into Caribbean tourism to promote sustainable tourism, sustainable economies, social and economic well-being.”

The Caribbean comprises thirteen island countries which include Dominica, Barbados, Jamaica, Antigua and Barbuda, and islands. All these countries have major tourism destinations that record thousands of visitors every year. The Ministry of Tourism encourages everyone to keep the islands clean and safe for visitors. Tourism connects the world as people from across the world visit the Caribbean to experience the rich heritage and indigeneity of the islands.
